Chapter 3375: Young Master Qi Has Always Wanted Your Approval
Editor: Atlas Studios
Ye Wangchuan watched as the taxi disappeared around the corner of the road. Then, he called Qin Si and said proudly, “Where are you? Come pick me up.”
**
In a simple European-style manor villa.
“The Zhou family is gone?”
A woman was wearing a wide top hat. The brim seemed to fly out, and jewelry and exquisite gauze hung on the edge.
The retro-styled lady was no longer young. Although she had taken good care of herself, the densely packed fine lines around the corners of her eyes betrayed her age.
However, her skin was extremely fair, and her temperament was noble and graceful. Her eyes were deep and shrewd, causing people to ignore the sense of age brought about by her appearance and pay more attention to her aura.
In front of her was the afternoon tea the servant had just brought over.
The tea set was exquisite porcelain with platinum patterns, the teacup filled with Earl Black Tea, a Westerner’s favorite, and a few exquisite snacks at the side.
There were not many, but they were obviously expensive and exquisite.
Nie Qingru picked up a biscuit and looked at the man in black kneeling in front of her. Her eyes became even more sinister and cold. “I’m asking you a question. Can’t you hear me?”
The atmosphere suddenly turned cold.
The servant carefully lowered his presence.
The man kneeling in front of her was Shadow.
“I’m asking you, is the Zhou family gone?”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Yes.”
He had lost weight, and his face grew haggard. There was a circle of green under his eyes, and it was obvious that he had not rested well recently.
Ever since Nie Qixing ‘accidentally’ died, he couldn’t sleep well. Every time he closed his eyes, he would remember Nie Qixing asking him with despair in the dark and dilapidated old hotel about who wanted his life.
Then, he said it was Qiao Nian.
And yet…
Nie Qingru could tell he was distracted. She crushed the biscuit between her fingers, causing the crumbs to fall.
The atmosphere in the villa became even more solemn.
She picked up the towel on the table and wiped the biscuit crumbs accidentally stuck to her fingertips with narrowed eyes. Then, she asked the man kneeling before her teasingly, “Do you still hate me?”
Shadow shook and looked up.
Meeting Nie Qingru’s emotionless eyes, he lowered his head in embarrassment. “I wouldn’t dare.”
“You don’t dare, it’s not that you don’t hate.” Nie Qingru was clear about this. She smiled and threw away the towel, muttering, “I won’t regret it. You should know well what I’ve experienced to get to where I am today. As long as I give him a chance, I’ll bury the fruit of my life’s hard work. I’ve even sacrificed my only daughter. What else can’t I sacrifice?”
Shadow fell silent.
Nie Qingru needed him to work for her wholeheartedly, so she patiently said, “You’ve been by my side for so long. You know that I wouldn’t give up on him unless I had no choice. But he was really too disappointing! No matter how I tried to lead him, he still disappointed me time after time.
“How many times have I told him that Qiao Nian is just a rotten stone? He’s going to inherit my position in the future and be the Nie family’s successor. His future is limitless… I told him not to go head-on with Qiao Nian.
“But he never took my words to heart. He always tried to be smart behind my back.”
Nie Qingru’s tone was uncontrollably filled with hostility.
Shadow pursed his lips with his head lowered. “Young Master Qi has always wanted your approval.”
